Christopher Smithās face turned ashen after hearing Henry Johnsonās words.Could it be that the Oliver Johnson he always trusted truly used him as a tool to threaten others?
Seeing their expressions abruptly change, Henry Johnson knew his goal was achieved and even pretended to guarantee Oliver Johnson not to worry before hanging up.
"Iāve signed the entrustment letter, you can release the person now." Asher Landās voice was chillingly cold. Though he appeared somewhat disheveled, his inherent arrogance and nobility remained undiminished.
Henry Johnson naturally couldnāt stand Asher Landās arrogance.
"President Land, this matter canāt just end so easily. Letting you walk out upright seems unjust for my brothers, doesnāt it?"
With a signal from him, three bodyguards stepped forward. Two held him up while the other started punching and kicking Asher Land.
Sophie Smithās voice was hoarse, unable to utter a word. Asher Land was so close to her, yet so far away. She desperately wanted to go to him, yet was so powerless.
Asher Land never glanced at her. He was afraid of seeing the sadness and despair in her eyes.
Even if he gave up the shares of Hush Sky, so what? Even if heās battered, so what?
As long as she is safe and unharmed, Asher Land is willing to die for her!
He fell into a pool of blood, struggling to keep his eyes open, afraid that if he closed them, she would disappear from his world. Chapters fırst released on ????????????????????�???????????????�???????????
Sophie Smith was freed, and it seemed Henry Johnson was ready to back down.
She rushed to Asher Land, lifting him and letting him lean in her embrace.
"Asher Land, Asher Land..." She could only call his name repeatedly.
"Iām fine..." Right now, he truly didnāt want to see her tears.
Henry Johnson ordered someone to release Christopher Smith; he got the share transfer letter but didnāt intend to let Christopher Smith go. He knew Asher Land would reckon later, but as long as Christopher Smith was beside them, Asher Land wouldnāt act rashly.
But as the bodyguards untied the rope binding Christopher Smith and were about to take him away, Christopher Smith did something insane.
Seizing an unguarded moment, he ran to the edge of the water tower.
Sophie Smith, sharp-eyed, saw his action and was instantly panic-stricken.
"Dad, what are you trying to do?" Every nerve in her body tensed up.
"Little Sophie, your father doesnāt want to be your burden anymore. Anyway, I donāt have long to live, if I die itās over, you wonāt have any concerns about me anymore."
"Dad, please donāt do anything foolish, okay?"
Just as Sophie Smith intended to stand, the bodyguards also moved forward; they wouldnāt let Christopher Smith be taken away by Sophie Smith and Asher Land.
Just as they were all about to draw near, Christopher Smithās lips curled into a despairing smile, and his body leaned backward, falling down...
Everyone present was stunned, did Christopher Smith really commit suicide by jumping off the building?
Asher Landās eyes were filled with shock and disbelief. Looking at the terrified woman before him, his heartbeat slowed for a half beat.
She stood there, eyes hollow, motionless.
A gentle breeze blew her dress, scattering her hair, everything seemed to come to a standstill.
Supporting himself with both hands, he stood up from the ground, walked to her, and embraced her frail body, burying her head into his chest.
